background: celiac disease (cd), as an autoimmune disease has initiated since ingestion of food containing gluten. constant intolerance to gluten causes damages of the small intestinal mucosa. one reason of mal-absorption in children and infants is cd. additionally, about 75% of newly identified patients with cd have low bone mineral density (bmd). many factors have role in metabolic bone disea...

Background: The aim of the present study was to find the effects of cadmium (Cd) on Japanese quail on the role of an animal model in order to understand the toxicity of Cd in creatures presented, within the environment. Methods: One hundred 30-day-old male Japanese quails were equally divided into the control group and Cd group. The control group received no Cd while the Cd group was given f...

chemical stabilization of heavy metals is one of the soil remediation methods based on the application amendments to reduce mobility of heavy metals. a laboratory study was conducted to investigate the influence of different kinds of amendments on cadmium (cd) stabilization in a cd-spiked soil. the amendments were municipal solid waste compost (mswc), coal fly ash (cfa), rice husk biochars prep...

Cadmium (Cd) concentration in soil solution and its bioavailability is controlled by sorption-desorption reactions. The objective of this research was to compare Cd adsorption behavior in six calcareous and four acid soils. Soil samples were equilibrated with 0.01 M Ca(NO3)2 containing 25 to 3200 mg Cd L−1. Results showed that the tendency for adsorption was high at low Cd concentrations (0-400...

abstract soil contamination by heavy metals is yet one of the most important environmental concerns. among heavy metals, nickel and cadmium have dangerous influences on human, animals and plants. the objective of this study was to derive a new model for simultaneous phytoextraction of ni and cd from contaminated soils. consequently, a macroscopic model was derived by combining yield reduction f...

Cadmium (Cd), as a widespread metal pollutant, readily accumulates in the food chain due to its easy absorption and high mobility. The endophytic fungi are cosmopolitan microorganisms that occur widely in association with plants in a heavy metal stress environment. A current pot experiment was conducted to evaluate the influence of Piriformospora indica, as a root endosymbiotic fungus, on the b...
